<![CDATA[Macrofauna is a biotic component that plays a crucial role in supporting ecosystem quality and stability. However, comprehensive information on the diversity, evenness, and importance index of macrofauna in the Suhita Valley, Bandar Lampung, is still unavailable. This limited information underpins the need for this study, as macrofauna diversity data can be used to assess environmental quality, monitor ecosystem stability, identify dominant and rare species, and support conservation-based area management. Furthermore, this information is also useful as a reference for environmental education activities, ecotourism development, and more concrete habitat conservation planning. This study aims to analyze the diversity index, evenness index, and importance index of macrofauna in three habitat types: residential areas, riparian zones, and high-stand areas. Sampling was conducted systematically using line transect and pitfall trap methods. The captured or observed macrofauna were then identified and analyzed quantitatively. The results showed that 22 macrofauna species with a total of 87 individuals were found. The diversity index in the line transect method was 2.224702055 and in the pitfall trap method was 2.15553999, which is included in the moderate category. The evenness index in the line transect method was 0.9661758264 and in the pitfall trap method was 0.8674531055, which is included in the high category and indicates a relatively stable community. The highest importance value index was found in Polyrhachis dives through the pitfall trap method and Bicyclus anynana through the line transect method. Thus, Suhita Valley has a fairly diverse and relatively stable macrofauna community, although some species show a higher level of dominance than others.]]>
